I have a bunch of the Berry's 100 grainers too. They seem to work well, but I believe they are about as big a bullet as needs to be in a 380.

I agree, but tell me this.....what have the Republicans done any differently?

I'm not sure how high the violent crime rate is with our senior citizens, but I can't believe it's a big concern. :shake: :shake:   Guys, our country is run by fools.

I've no experience with that particular rifle. I am a Savage fan, however, and have yet to own one that wasn't accurate.

I've never sold a gun to a fellow named Muhammed. Call me prejudiced but I probably never will.

My grandfather would have greeted his second call with an air horn blown into the phone speaker.

If you like a light rifle, keep an eye out for a vintage Winchester model 43. If you prefer a heavier rifle, a pre 64 Model 70 Winchester can't be beat. Better be prepared to shell out some cash though.

No different than leaving it on said rifle.

Kentucky's gun laws are basically don't shoot anything that don't need shootin'.   Bowling Green is a pretty nice town.

My hat's off to the officer or officers who helped arrange this clown's meeting with Allah. :cheers:

I remember Phil Valentine stating several years back that one day soon there will be too classes of people; those who are not politically correct, and those who are dead.   I thought it was humorous at the time. Lately, it crosses my mind a lot and isn't funny anymore.

Well, this ain't facebook. Tell ya' what....you love your gays, I'll love my Jesus, and we'll get along just fine here chatting about guns. Fair enough?

What all did they shoot up today? I'm about sick of the comparing Christians to Muslims cr@p.

What is "Bull****", Alex? :wall: :shrug: I found myself speculating pretty early on.

It seems like these "random acts" are becoming less and less random. :shake:

In Tennessee, it is illegal, for some reason, to hunt small game with a center fire cartridge; excepting shotguns of course. A 22 Hornet works great, as does a 38 Special wadcutter; but they aren't a legal means of doing so.   It would be quite the turkey popper as well, but again, no dice in Tennessee.

I'm betting it would feed as is. I don't have a tok sizing die, or I'd make up a round and try it for you.   I have a 32-20 Smith and Wesson hand ejector. It works fine, but I could see some bottleneck cartridges sticking in a revolver cylinder. I think results were mixed with the 22 Jet.   The 32-20 is a fun cartridge, but cases are fragile and hard to come by. This idea does away with both those problems.

I have a bunch of 100 grain half jacket bullets that would be made to order for this.

You're picking them too quick. They'll turn.   Seriously, I do find that pepper plants in general grow well in poor soil. Why do you think they're so popular in Mexico? B)

Interesting. I always thought a 7.62x25 would make an excellent plinking rifle cartridge. This is sort of like a rimmed version? How cool would this be in a small lever rifle?   I really like the checkering on that H&R too! :up:

Red clay and chert rock. I've never had a problem growing them. Some years the plants are loaded, some years the peppers are kind of sparse. They seem to like sun.   Last year in particular, we got 4-5 GIANT peppers early, and then nothing for about 6 weeks. Then, suddenly, the plants were all loaded to the point of uprooting themselves.

My neighbor deer hunts with one like it. I've shot it before. It's a fine rifle. Ammo's getting a bit tough to find, but I love the older Marlins. At one time, they were the best deal going on the used market. Today, it seems people have learned this, and they command a pretty good price. A quality rifle indeed.

If you've never tried this, you really should. Take ears of sweet corn from your garden, still in the shucks, soak them in water for about an hour, and grill them until the shucks turn black. When you shuck them, there'll be no silk on the corn, and it is delicious. No butter, salt, etc. needed.   I wish I could get rid of the raccoons. They know exactly when the corn is ripe. :wall:

I have a couple of 280 Remington chambered rifles, but neither are "Ackley Improved". A 280 is hard to beat.

I once bought a gun collection from a lady who inherited them from her deceased brother. I went to her house and gave her the approximate retail value of each piece. I explained to her that selling items at retail involved a good deal of work.   Turns out she just wanted them gone, and seemed happy for me to get them. She asked what I'd offer for them, I gave her a number well below what they were worth. She seemed pleased and accepted the offer, with full knowledge the guns were worth much more than I paid for them. In the end, she got rid of the guns without a hassle, and I got a screaming deal on some pieces I otherwise never would have owned.   I say all that to say this: be honest and upfront with this lady. Explain to her the real value of what she has, and that you aren't in a position to pay retail for it. You just might get a deal as well.
